It's a great start to the year for Imagination Technologies. The UK chip designer was pretty much crippled after Apple, its biggest customer, ditched it and moved GPU design in-house. Now they've agreed a "new multi-year license agreement."

If Apple can't build GPUs without infringing on IMGs designs, I wonder what Intel can do by comparison. Are they going to have to license a few things to get going (or is someone going to challenge Intel's design in court?)

https://t.co/pJzEkemt4E Here’s a sad tale. UK’s Imagination Tech saw its shares collapse in 2016-17 as main customer Apple signalled it was pulling out. It was then sold to a China-linked private equity fund. Now a new deal with Apple has been signed

What a weird way to start 2020. It definitely answers the whole "how is Apple still making backwards-compatible GPUs without infringing on IMG tech" question, but after the 2017 breakup, I was not expecting the two companies to ever sign any further agreements https://t.co/q1S0UZoxR6

애플, 법적소송과 직원 빼가기 끝에 이메지네이션과 변경된 GPU 칩 계약 체결
- 2017년 애플, 2년 내 iPhone과 iPad에 사용하는 GPU 의존 중단할 것이라고 경고
- 그 후 애플, iPhone 8 및 X에 내장된 A11 칩과 함께 자체 첫 GPU 론칭하고 애플이 지불하는 수입 크게 줄어 https://t.co/PhzqmWmZ8Z
PowerVR GPU로 유명한 이매지네이션, 애플과의 IP 라이센싱 계약 재연장했다고 밝혀. 2017년, 애플 측이 2년 내 계약 해지를 통보했다는 소식에 회사 주가가 폭락해 같은 해 중국 자본 사모펀드가 인수했죠. https://t.co/zOazuOX6GS
